Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of on-line material analysis.
- the material analyzed using this means may be in the form of an aerosol or a gas laden with constituent particles of this material, thus forming smoke.
- the invention relates to the field of optical analysis systems for the study of particles formed by pyrolysis inside a characterization cell.
- the description below is based on the use of laser-induced plasma spectrometry, or LIBS (“laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy ”) analysis.
- LIBS laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
- This method consists in focusing a pulsed laser beam in a reaction mixture to be analyzed and in forming a plasma which is analyzed by emission spectrometry. This makes it possible to determine the composition of said reaction mixture.
- This technique is applied in the description below to the control of fumes from the production of nanometric particles by laser pyrolysis.
- An LIBS system for an LIBS analysis is illustrated by the figure 1 and includes an A5 nanoparticle synthesis reactor, a LIBS A1 cell, an A2 laser to emit a laser beam, an A3 lens to converge the laser beam inside the LIBS A1 cell, an A4 optical system to collect signals from the LIBS A1 cell, and an A7 spectrometer.
- the production of nanometric particles within the A5 reactor is based on the cross-flow interaction between a beam emitted by a laser, for example a carbon dioxide CO 2 power laser, and a reaction mixture.
- a laser for example a carbon dioxide CO 2 power laser
- the beam excites vibrational states of the molecules (called precursors) of the reaction mixture.
- the energy which has been transmitted from the beam to the molecules is redistributed by collision throughout the reaction mixture.
- a very rapid rise in the temperature of the reaction mixture is observed, which induces the thermal decomposition of the molecules. This gives rise to a so-called “supersaturated” vapor in terms of radicals and energy.
- Nanoparticles are then formed by homogeneous germination from the radicals. By a phenomenon of growth by collision / coalescence, the nanoparticles grow.
- the dissociation and the formation of the nanoparticles take place in an overlap volume between the beam and the flow of the reaction mixture which can be observed thanks to the production of a flame at this location.
- the nanoparticles are then brought into the LIBS A1 cell via an inlet duct A6 .
- the LIBS A1 cell also includes an A15 viewing window for viewing plasma with the naked eye.
- the nanoparticles behave like a gas and therefore spread inside the reaction chamber and occupy all the available space there, forming a smoke.
- the laser beam F laser generated by the laser A2 is focused by the lens A3 .
- the laser beam F laser is focused in the mixture to be analyzed, there is vaporization of the nanoparticles causing the ejection of atoms and forming an expanding plasma.
- the atoms de-excite causing the emission of light.
- This light is then received by the adapted optical system A4 and placed on the same side as the laser A2.
- This light is then analyzed by the spectrometer A7 connected to the optical system A4 by an optical fiber A8 suitable for transporting the signal.
- a drawback of this LIBS cell results from the fact that the nanoparticles behave like a gas within the reaction chamber. This is why the analysis window A131 of the third arm A13 becomes dirty.
- the dirty A131 analysis window acts as a filter which blocks part of the laser beam F laser . All the energy of the laser beam F laser is therefore not efficient and only a part is used to form the plasma. The plasma formed is therefore less energetic and emits a weaker signal. This already weakened signal is further attenuated when it passes through the analysis window A131 from the third arm back to the optical system A4 .
- the plasma formed is not limited to the location of focusing of the laser beam F laser , and therefore where it is most concentrated. Indeed, as particles are present throughout the reaction chamber, secondary PI dry plasmas can form between the focal point of the laser beam, where the main plasma PI pr is formed , and the analysis window A131 through which the laser beam F laser enters inside the reaction chamber as shown in the figure 2 .
- the secondary PI dry plasmas can be located outside the observation zone by the optical system A4.
- the object of the invention is to remedy at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art presented above by way of example.
- the advantage is that the signal obtained at the output (light emitted by the plasma and passing through the analysis window) is stabilized compared to the prior art.
- the invention also relates to a characterization system comprising a cell as described above and furthermore a collector downstream of the outlet of the cell recovering the powder after analysis thereof and a pressure regulator to maintain constant pressure in the reaction chamber of the cell.
- the characterization cell is a LIBS system.
- the LIBS cell for laser generated plasma smoke analysis comprises a LIBS 1 cell.
- the LIBS cell 1 comprises a reaction chamber in which the plasma is formed, a first arm 11 with at its free end an inlet orifice 111 for the arrival of the smoke inside the reaction chamber, a second arm 12 with at its free end an outlet opening 121 for evacuating the smoke from the reaction chamber.
- the inlet 111 and outlet 121 orifices may be opposed and are advantageously arranged respectively on the upper part and the lower part of the LIBS cell 1 .
- the LIBS cell 1 further comprises a third arm 13 closed by an analysis window 131 for the entry of a laser beam F laser intended to form the plasma inside the reaction chamber.
- a fourth arm 14 In front of the third arm 13 can be provided a fourth arm 14 closed by a cover 141 .
- the four arms 11 , 12, 13 and 14 can be advantageously arranged in a cross, so the beam entering through the analysis window 131 intersects the smoke entering through the inlet orifice 111 and exiting through the opposite outlet 121. to the latter.
- the laser F laser beam can ablate the material forming the LIBS 1 cell.
- the fourth arm 14 is therefore chosen to be longer than the third arm 13 .
- the particles which result from the ablation by the laser beam F of the laser cover 141 of the fourth arm 14 are less likely to pollute the measurements made on the smoke.
- the LIBS cell 1 can also include a viewing window 15 to allow an operator to observe the inside of the reaction chamber with the naked eye or by means of a viewing device, for example a video camera connected to the reaction chamber. a screen.
- This viewing window 15 can be placed on the LIBS cell 1 so that the angle of sight through the viewing window 15 is perpendicular to the incident direction of the beam.
- the LIBS cell further comprises a blower 16 to ensure a sweep of inert gas in the vicinity of at least the analysis window 131.
- the blower 16 may be a pump connected by pipes to a reservoir of inert gas, for example argon, on one side, and on the other to an inert gas inlet 132 located in the third arm. 13 in the vicinity of its end closed by the analysis window 131.
- inert gas for example argon
- the third arm 13 may have the shape of a venturi, as illustrated in FIG. figure 4 , ie the third arm 13 is divided into two parts of different sections S1, S2 .
- the first part 134 on the side of its free end, has a section S1 that is larger than the section S2 of the second part 135 on the side of the reaction chamber.
- An overpressure ⁇ P is then generated in the first part 134 further limiting the quantity of smoke in the vicinity of the analysis window 131.
- the blower 16 can also be connected to an intake port located near the end of the fourth arm 14 which is closed by a cover. This makes it possible to balance the argon gas flows inside the LIBS 1 cell.
- the blower 16 can also be connected to an intake port located in the vicinity of the viewing window 15. This also reduces the fouling of the viewing window 15. In this case, in order to balance the flow of inert gas inside the LIBS 1 cell, scanning can also be ensured in the same way on the side opposite to the viewing window 15.
- the flow of inert gas from the blower 16 can be adjustable.
- the LIBS cell further comprises an injector 17 for the coaxial sheathed injection of the smoke inside the reaction chamber, the sheathing being provided by a jet of inert gas coaxial with the smoke and surrounding the latter.
- the sheathing of the smoke makes it possible to confine the latter inside the reaction chamber.
- the smoke of nanoparticles will not tend to occupy all the space available inside the LIBS cell 1 and in particular towards the analysis window 131 and the viewing window 15.
- the formation of secondary plasmas outside the focal point of the laser beam F laser is also avoided.
- the injector 17 can be, as illustrated in the figure 5 , a double frustoconical nozzle 17 having two coaxial orifices 171 and 172, a first 171 with a disc-shaped section for the arrival of the smoke Fu and a second 172 with an annular-shaped section surrounding the first orifice 171 for the arrival of inert gas.
- the injected inert gas surrounds the smoke which is confined inside the cylinder formed by the inert gas.
- the inert gas is for example argon Ar.
- the LIBS cell 1 can form part of an LIBS system further comprising a LIBS manifold 18 downstream of the outlet port 121 of the LIBS cell 1 and a pressure regulator 19 to maintain the pressure constant in the reaction chamber.
- the pressure regulator 19 may be a regulating valve placed downstream of the LIBS manifold 18 to compensate for the pressure drop due to the clogging of the filters thereof.
- the LIBS regulation valve 19 is connected to a pressure probe S1 placed inside the LIBS cell 1 in order to measure the pressure there.
- a servo control is provided to control the LIBS 19 control valve according to the pressure measured inside the LIBS 1 cell.
- the LIBS 19 control valve opens progressively as the LIBS 18 manifold clogs up due to the fumes.
- the LIBS system also comprises a reactor 5 for the generation of smoke as described in the technological background part.
- the outlet of the reactor 5 is connected to a pump 9 which generates a flow of smoke.
- the smoke is conducted partly to the LIBS 1 cell and partly to a manifold 5 1 of the reactor.
- a regulating valve 5 2 At the outlet of the manifold 5 1 is arranged a regulating valve 5 2 to regulate the pressure inside the reactor 5 which must be kept constant.
- the regulating valve 52 is connected to a pressure probe S2 placed inside the reactor 5 in order to measure the pressure therein.
- a servo-control is provided to control the regulating valve 52 as a function of the pressure measured inside the reactor 5.
- the regulating valve 52 opens progressively as the filters of the manifold 51 of the reactor 5 become clogged. because of nanoparticles.
- the collectors 18 and 51 collect the nanoparticles from the smoke so that they are not released into the atmosphere.
- the presence of the LIBS 19 control valve is necessary to maintain a stable observed signal.
- the clogging of the reactor manifold 51 causes the opening of the control valve 52 increasing the flow rate in the channel outside the LIBS cell and reducing the flow rate in the channel of the reactor. LIBS cell.
- the LIBS manifold 18 also becomes clogged, which causes the pressure in the channel of the LIBS cell to vary and therefore inside the LIBS 1 cell. The decrease in flow and the variation in pressure in the LIBS cell pathway then makes the plasma produced unstable.
- the pressure inside the reactor 5 is kept below atmospheric pressure in order to prevent the nanoparticles produced from escaping into the ambient atmosphere, for example, the pressure is controlled at 900 mbar.
- Reactor 5 is configured so as to have a production of 400 g / h of nanoparticles.
- the pump 9 imposes a flow rate of 160 m 3 / h.
- the pressure inside the LIBS 1 cell can be slaved to 850 mbar.
- the overall flow of inert gas (argon) used for the scanning of windows 131 and 15 and of the smoke ducting is 30 L / min distributed as follows: 20 L / min for the scanning of windows 131 and 15 and 10 L / min for sheathing.
- the laser 2 used is a nanosecond laser of the Nd: YAG type.
- the energy per pulse of laser 2 is set at 50 mJ.
- a converging lens 3 is positioned between the laser 2 and the analysis window 131.
- the laser 2 and the converging lens 3 are positioned so that the focal point of the laser beam F laser emitted by the laser 2 is located at the intersection between the four arms 11 , 12 , 13 and 14 , i.e. under the flow d 'arrival of the smoke, and next to the viewing window 15 if this is provided on the LIBS 2 cell.
- the signal emitted by the plasma is collected by the optical system 4 placed at the output, facing the analysis window 131.
- the optical system 4 sends the collected signal to a spectrometer 7 which analyzes the spectrum of the emitted signal (which is the light of the plasma).
- the dimensions of the cell are (from the end of the arms to the center of the cell, i.e. where plasma is created): - first arm 11: 53 mm - second arm 12: 160 mm - third arm 13: 50 mm - fourth arm 14: 100 mm
- FIG. 6 is shown a graph illustrating the intensity of the measured signal (in arbitrary units) as a function of the scanning flow rate used (in L / min) for four different elements: silicon Si, hydrogen H, argon Ar and carbon C.
- the signal strength for silicon Si and hydrogen H can be read on the ordinate scale on the left.
- the signal strength for argon Ar and carbon C can be read on the ordinate scale to the right.
- the sheath flow rate is chosen so that the combined flow rate of the sheathing and sweeping is 30 L / min.
- the sheath flow rate is 30 L / min. If the sweep flow rate is 10 L / min, the sheath flow rate is 20 L / min.
- the figure 6 therefore shows that with the cladding alone (zero sweep flow), the signal intensities for the four elements are much lower than for a cladding flow rate of 10 L / min (i.e. a sweep flow of 20 L / min) .
- This figure 6 further shows that with scanning alone (zero cladding flow rate), the signal intensities for the four elements are lower than for a sheathing flow rate of 10 L / min (ie a scanning flow rate of 20 L / min).
- the conditions for the sheath flow rate at 10 L / min and the sweep flow rate at 20 L / min are close to the optimum and make it possible to obtain signal intensities close to the maximum.
- the figure 7 shows the combined effect of cladding and sweeping on signal repeatability.
- the repeatability is given on the y-axis for four elements (the same as for the figure 6 ) and is expressed as the relative standard deviation of the intensity of the lines calculated over fifty spectra, a spectrum resulting from the integration of the signal over thirty laser shots. The lower the standard deviation, the better the repeatability.
- the sheath flow rate is chosen so that the combined flow rate of the sheathing and sweeping is 30 L / min.
- the repeatability of the measured signals is better when the cladding and the sweep are combined compared to the use of the cladding alone or of the sweep alone with a low value indicating a high repeatability.
- the sweep flow rate is 20 L / min and the sheathing flow rate is 10 L / min, the repeatability is close to the minimum.
- the two figures 6 and 7 therefore show that the effect of cladding alone and scanning alone do not add up, but moreover, the quality of the signals is unexpectedly improved.
